Even if you’ve never been to Venice, this elegant city in Italy that seems to float on water will feel familiar. From the bustling Grand Canal to the domes of the Basilica di San Marco, the Gothic palazzi to graceful bridges, it seems every part of the city has been depicted in paintings, photographs and film. But there are still corners of this lagoon city to be discovered, whether you are visiting the beautiful lesser-known islands or strolling down the quiet backstreets. Wherever you are, the city is a visual feast and well worth navigating around the crowds to explore.

Must-do

St Mark’s Square may be constantly teeming with visitors but it is still a magnificent sight to behold. The gilded domes of the cathedral, the 16th-century Torre dell’Orologio clock tower and the beautifully Gothic waterfront Doge’s Palace make this the perfect place to start your Venice experience. From there, take a water taxi to explore the Grand Canal, surprisingly unchanged since Canaletto’s time. Discover more about Venetian art at the Gallerie dell’Accademia, then scale the tower at San Giorgio Maggiore for sweeping city views followed by a magical evening trip on a gondola.

Culture

Each September, Venice is lit up by the star power of Hollywood’s leading ladies and gentlemen at the Venice Film Festival. But if you didn’t receive an invitation, you don’t have to miss out on the glamour of La Serenissima, as the city is known. Every two years (on years with odd numbers), the Venice Biennale art exhibition stages a spectacular programme of theatre, dance, music, art and cinema at venues across the city. Or for a more hedonistic escape, coincide your trip with the city’s February Carnival, when you can don a mask and fanciful costume to attend some of the world’s most sumptuous balls.

Adventurous spirit

Discover the living, breathing Venice in this open-air museum on a walking tour through its tiny, winding streets. Or if you’re looking for a unique perspective, explore the multitude of waterways by kayak at your own pace. Alternatively, upgrade to the full James Bond experience and arrive in style at your chosen destination by water limousine. You could hop in one to explore some of the 118 islands in the Venice lagoon. The barrier island of Lido is full of Belle Epoque seaside charm, while the multi-coloured buildings of Burano are a photographer’s dream, and tiny Torcello is worth a visit for its 11th-century cathedral with its beautiful Byzantine mosaics.

With the kids

Whether you are chugging across the Grand Canal aboard a water taxi, playing in the city’s squares or dashing across beautiful bridges down hidden lanes, Venice is a delight for children. Take them to Ca’macana, one of Venice’s oldest mask-makers, to learn how to make carnival masks. Then learn how to be a gondolier during a special lesson on the water. The hedge maze at the elegant palazzo Villa Pisani is ideal for families, reputedly one of the most difficult to navigate in the world (even Napoleon struggled), while the seaside resort of the Lido is ideal for exploring by bike.

Retail therapy

Whether you are looking for Gucci or glassware, Venice has it all. The big Italian designer brands are dotted among the streets around St Mark’s Square. If you want to take home carefully blown Murano glass or exquisite lace from the island of Burano, the trick is to avoid buying on the islands themselves. While they are worth a visit to see workshops in action, the best-quality produce is sold on the main island. Try Martinuzzi for lace items and Attombri, created by brothers Stephano and Daniele Attombri, for beautiful glass jewellery. And the fine printed silks sold at Rubelli and Bevilacqua are sure to catch your eye.

Food and drink

While Venice isn’t short of restaurants catering to the tourist crowd, it is also home to some spectacular dining experiences. Cicchetti, small sharing plates, are ideal to accompany your drinks at traditional bacari (small bars), offering the ultimate Venetian experience. For a more elegant evening, head for the stylish eateries lapped by the city’s waterways and serving seafood straight from the lagoon. Kick off any night in style at Harry’s Bar while you sip a bellini, or simply watch the sunset from a neighbourhood bar. That’s what Venice evenings are all about.
